How a leg
is flown.
Five legs from call to handoff — the same method whether the work is a runway or an airframe.
The flight
strip.
Each leg produces a record — that's how services stay charted, not just done.
Call & scope
The operator states the service; the field answers with a written tasking — scope, crew, equipment and hours named before the work.
Field checked
Runway, bay or airframe inspected against the task — condition noted, the chart updated before work begins.
Service dispatched
The work runs under the tasking — hours and equipment charted, findings written to the same file.
Task signed
The work is inspected and signed against the scope — what's done is on the record, not on recall.
Record kept
The strip closes with the client — task chart, findings and sign-off handed over, the file kept for reference.
Rules the field
flies by.
Tasked first
No work before the tasking — a written scope in place of a handshake.
Chart over memory
Hours, crew and findings live in the file — the record, not recall, is the truth.
Field checked daily
Runway checked, lights verified, markings maintained — the strip stays open only if it's inspected.
Signed leg
Work isn't done until it's inspected and signed — the signature closes the leg.
Records handed over
Chart, findings and sign-off go to the client at close — the file is theirs.
Scope is plain
Factory conversion, overhaul and rebuilding are excluded — stated in the tasking, not assumed.
Asked of
the field.
Name the aircraft and the service — the field answers with a written tasking including scope, crew, equipment and schedule. Nothing runs without the tasking on file.
Yes — fueling on a contract or fee basis runs like every other service: tasking, dispatch, hours charted, signature at close.
Factory conversion, factory overhaul and factory rebuilding are outside scope — the tasking names what's excluded as plainly as what's included.
Frequently — an airport operation with hangar rental touches both. The tasking names the sectors involved and the work runs as one file, not two jobs.
